My way of rebelling against techbros and autocrats:
December 2024: quit all Big Tech platforms and start #selfhosting essential services
December 2025: write guides for newbies about how to self-host
I'm also in discussion with a blogger I admire to start a podcast about tech... where we'll focus on solutions (instead of problems)... aiming to inspire others to join in...
It's been a really heavy year but these little acts of rebellion give me hope ✨
@_elena still no simple FTP server that doesn't require 287302723 different config files with 0xDEADBEEF command line options.
Honestly if a ftp server is more complicated than `ftpserver $HOME --write --read` then it is a failed one.

@_elena You're needed.
@anne_twain thank you 🥹
-
I love it and that is why I added your RSS to #TidySearch 🥰
@justbob thank you! 🥰
-
@_elena My way of rebelling: Teach compsci whilst painting a positive vision for computing, to show how narrow-minded these powerful fools are!
And yes, I would check out your podcast.
@alcinnz amazing!!! 🙏

@_elena its so fun switching off these mega-corp platforms and apps. you realize you don't actually need most of them at all.
@SnakeOilSalesman absolutely

@_elena As a busy dad, i dont have the time to set things up any more, and self hosting is seldom plug and play... I set up Home Assistant on a raspi, but it took time. More plug and play self hosting pls! 🙂 And i dont want to have 100 raspberry pis running things neither, so some sort of virtualization would be nice also.
@gnomulf maintenance on YunoHost is SUPER EASY... I used a basic VPS with little RAM and had 2 microblogging, a photo sharing and other apps running smoothly... so I highly recommend YunoHost

Great idea 🙌🏻 !
I think a podcast could reach even more ppl, who rather listen to podcasts than reading longer blogs. Maybe even with guests sometimes 🤷🏻?
With your projects you’re not just giving yourself hope, but also others 😊 🚀
@EloPup thank you and yes! we're planning to have guests :)

@_elena You warrior! And yes, they give me hope too 🙂
@sylvia awww thank you Sylvia ❤️

@Migueldeicaza I was surprised to learn it's the highest earning film Pitt has made. I don't think it's his best but it's probably in the top five. Very entertaining, a classic sort of film. A little long, but good pacing, anyway. And, in a world where nearly all blockbusters are made for children, it's refreshing to see a big action movie not based on a comic book.

Still stick with Pino? Give LogTape a try!

@aeva The traditional chorus effect is sound + sound * vibrato. I always thought it was a sine wave vibrato, but others in this thread seem to be suggesting saw wave.
If the vibrato is balanced and starts with taking the pitch lower you’ll never need samples from the future. Right when the vibrato cursor catches up to the present, it’s time to get behind again.
So overall the formula is out[x] = in[x] + in[x + offset] where offset is a sine wave that starts at 0 and goes to -1 and back to 0.
-
@epilanthanomai from reading the article it sounds like a saw wave + some noise, a feedback loop, and a lowpass filter might be able to produce something basic?
-
@aeva saw wave through a formant filter: a two (or more) pole resonant low pass. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formant#Formant_plots

Il Codex Atlanticus online
@milano - L'Ambrosiana ha una versione web interattiva del codice.

Brad Pitt’s F1 movie had me glued to my seat. I could use more of this.
